Suspicious death at the port of Brest: the body of a boater found at the Château marina

The deployment of resources did not escape the eye of those present that day. “We first saw a police car arrive, then a fire van and a second,” testifies a catering professional, based on Quai Éric-Tabarly. But, since Tuesday January 7, 2025, nothing, or not much, has filtered out about what happened. A couple of retirees from L’Hôpital-Camfrout, leaving footbridge 2 of the marina, confide that they “know nothing”.

However, it is at this level that, according to our information, the body of a young woman, aged just under 30, was discovered, around 11 a.m., between two boats, at pontoon H.

An autopsy conducted

“It was my friend who discovered the body,” whispers a boater. Apparently, she lived on a boat with her boyfriend and was a student. » If the sad discovery caused turmoil within the port community, the circumstances of the death were still unclear. “The body was found between my boat and that of my neighbor. I was not there when he was taken out of the water and I was only informed three days later, slips this resident. We could hope for some form of communication. After all, there is solidarity between port residents. But we don’t know anything about it, which is a shame. »

According to our information, the recordings from surveillance cameras overlooking the pontoons were recovered by the national police. We see the victim taking footbridge 2 dressed in the same way as when her body was discovered. An autopsy, the conclusions of which are awaited in order to determine the circumstances of death, was carried out.
